The past few days have been crazy for breaking rumors and FujiAddict sources really knocked it out of the park. So I have been asked to condense the release dates into an easy to read timeline with details, but hey when’s the last time 6 cameras leaked with tons of details in 3 posts anywhere, but here?

You can read the individual rumors (1, 2, 3, 4) and I will be writing about the various cameras listed above more in the future because I think we can make some safe inference like the video-centric X-H1 should have a grip with XLR jacks or even a guess/wish that maybe the video finder can be removed so that you can securely mount something like an ATMOS on top. It’s highly likely Fujifilm designed the X-H1 to do much of what the Panasonic GH5 does and more, while the X-T3 will likely be a Sony a9 killer. It’s important to use the right tool for the job.
